“I am 32 years old. I went from Chicago to Milwaukee specifically to Dr. Weiss for planned minimal invasive surgery, mitral valve repair. Great result! The surgery went excellent, no issues! The side scar is very small and most likely will be almost invisible. Highly recommend! I felt that Dr. Weiss cared for me, scheduled the surgery the day when he could get together his best team. Other doctors can treat you like “another body”. Thank you Dr. Weiss! ”

“When I found out that I needed a valve replacement only months before my wedding day, I was shocked to say the least. I met with Dr. Weiss after hearing several others give glowing recommendations of his work. He has a great reputation in the medical community, and for good reason! He and his team at Aurora St. Luke’s are excellent in every aspect of patient care. Every question was answered and every need was addressed, every step of the way, from my preop visit to my postop visit.

Dr. Weiss was able to perform my surgery using a minimally invasive approach which allowed me to recover faster and have the scar on the side of my chest instead of down the middle of my chest. I really can’t imagine it going any better than it did! He is an extremely talented surgeon but also a very relatable and likeable guy who can explain things in a simple way. Two thumbs up to Dr. Weiss and his team. I will be sending any family or friends to him for care if they ever need it!”

“I’m so very pleased with the surgery I had with Dr. Weiss. The moment I met and talked with him, I knew he was the physician I would choose. I had seen another surgeon and was planning on “interviewing” three total. Instead of some other assistant answering my questions, Dr. Weiss gave me the time personally.

He came to see me three times in the hospital. He is very modern and up-to-date in the latest sense. I had though I wanted a surgeon with 30 years or “road work”… Not so. His bedside manner was above what I could have hoped for. To book he accomplished an amazing minimally invasive incision. This is important to a woman.

I have already recommended Dr. Weiss to an acquaintance who needs the same surgery.”

“This man is beyond genius. He has amazing bed side manner. He is kind, gifted, tremendously skilled and confident. He is exactly what I look for in a surgeon. The method and the precise procedure he did on me could not be duplicated anywhere else in the country, and I searched long and hard. I owe my life to this man. In my opinion, he is probably one of the best, if not the best, thoracic surgeons in the country. I consider him a gift from God. I owe him my life.”

“Dr. Weiss performed an emergency operation on my aortic dissection. He literally saved my life! His quiet confidence and professionalism assured me and my wife we were in the right place with the right people. That means so much during those first scary days of hospitalization and helped me to recover more quickly.

My recovery is progressing rapidly with little pain and no complications. Dr. Weiss and his team used the most advanced techniques to preserve and repair my heart. What could have been a tragedy turned into a celebration of life!”

“Dr. Weiss is the by far the most amazing surgeon. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a heart surgery. I had a heart transplant on Christmas Eve. Dr. Weiss and my heart donor saved my life and I will forver be grateful for that. I can now live a normal life and do everything I used to do before heart failure. He has a great bedside manner and explained everything in detail to me. I am a RN and he inspires me to want to work with transplant patients someday.”

“My cardiologist recommended Dr. Weiss for my mitral valve prolapse surgery. I’m so glad he did. Dr. Weiss was out of network for me but the quick recovery resulting from the non-invasive technique he used was worth every penny. Dr. Weiss has an incredible team that assists with pre-surgery preparation and provides amazing post-surgical care leaving Dr. Weiss the time to help more patients. The cardiac rehab I received at Saint Lukes was also excellent.”

“I’m a patient of Dr Weiss from a couple years ago. I have had a very positive outcome after a couple issues my body threw at him. Every detail from the first phone call to his office by my GP to a month long stay in the hospital. Everything and every one was kind, patient, understanding, calmed my nerves, etc. Dr Weiss and his nurse Donna explained everything in detail so I wasn’t over nervous and all my questions were answered. I’ve recommended him to so many people and I will continue to do so.”
